PFC Notes and Experiences

During the last event of the season last weekend, gathered more data; however, still not enough to be conclusive; the spreadsheet is updated. The main reason the data is not yet conclusive is because of the OEM brake fluid that only lasted about 5 to 6 laps and would result in spongy pedal afterwards, and the rotors having very large cracks with several exceeding 7 mm in length even though none would connect or run to the edge, it just did not give me confidence to be hard on brakes.

Overall however, the pads are holding very well, and I was only off by 0.5 secs of my best times at Summit Point. We'll see how things shape up with new fluid and rotors next season.

Btw, I am not yet getting significant dust on wheels that I can see (black wheels), and I have very significantly less noise during street driving that I had with the RS-29s.
